The sure way would be to measure the lift and duration. If u put a pic up so i could see the lobes, would prob be able to tell u if it's std or not.

hmm, hard to tell from there. In some of the pics, the lobes do look high lift, in others they don't . It looks like some of them worn - are they all equal?

Look on the dissy end of the cam, All kent cams have the part number on it there.

but still best to measure all lobes as well, as no point fitting a well worn kent cam.

um the usual light wear on the lobs think its only chill cast, but a lot better than the ford cam witch had only done 56k, the lobs are higher, if u run ur fingers from the runners across the first lob its almost level. un like the ford one witch the lob is lower kinda level with the end of the bevel, the lobs are also more rounded at the sides not so straight.

looking dont always tell you its worn,

you need to check every one with a digital verniers, or micro meter.


Has it got markings on end??
